    Stellarium as an astronomy program has no support for gematria. It supports Julian day numbers and the conventional Gregorian calendar for the present time and (with the new Calendars plugin) several other calendars. To count days, use the Julian Day interface, it avoids different month lengths or leap years. This forum is no longer anonymous. We had too much spam.

    Not sure about labels. You can also place a little icon as SkyImage. But I must read the docs like you.

    We have ideas to recreate just this: desaturated DSO views. The Milky Way can already be desaturated.

    Are you in the Southern hemisphere on a location with daylight saving time? How should we know? If you set location and timezone (F6 panel), the simulation should be accurate.

Or just "desert flowers")

    I think I have seen exactly such discussion (Arduino too limited for on-board sidereal time computation) in some other forum (or even here...). There must be tens of Arduino guiding projects discussed online.

    The User Guide, section 15.2.1: Abilities and limitations This plug-in allows Stellarium to send ’slew’ (’go to’) commands to the device and to receive its current position. There are some scopes which additionally support ’sync’ commands to be received in order to update the internal pointing model of the mount. Some scopes also have the ability to abort a previous slew command. However, users should always be aware of the possibility for mount collisions and similar situations. You should always...
